Pollen count Carter Springs residents check each morning
The Carter Springs pollen count today is 5 (Low). No single plant stands out in today’s readings; the Grass category is the one the index is led by. Tree pollen is the highest single category in the split at 0.6 (Low), ahead of grass pollen at 0.6 and weed pollen at 0.6. The sections below break that headline number down by plant, by day and by what the band means in practice. Pollen Atlas updated this count on Saturday, November 7, 2026.
A Low band on the Pollen Atlas index means the Total Pollen Index has stayed in the lower part of the 0–100 scale. Readings in this band are built from low individual category values rather than from one large spike, and the category split above matters more than the headline number: a low total can still contain one category, such as tree pollen, reading noticeably higher than the rest, which is why the split is printed on every Carter Springs page.
Higher-elevation Mountain West cities generally run a shorter outdoor pollen season than the coasts or the South, with the main tree and grass activity compressed into the warmer months. Autumn and winter pages in this region are therefore commonly quiet, with low totals built from small weed and mold values. A low reading in this region and season is the expected pattern, and any future rise will show first in the category split and the forecast, not in the headline alone.

Pollen by type in Carter Springs
What is driving Carter Springs’s pollen today
The shape of today’s 5 (Low) is set by tree pollen at 0.6 (Low on its own scale) — about 33% of the four category readings added together, level with grass pollen at 0.6. Tree readings are the fastest-moving of the four in their season, because species pollinate in sequence — a tree-led total can change character within a week. Tree pollen leading in November runs against the usual calendar — the Nevada tree chapter runs February to May — so today’s lead is the model outranking the pattern, and this page reports the modelled reading first.
Plant-level detail is not in today’s feed for Carter Springs, so the drivers have to be read from the category split above. The Nevada guide’s account of Nevada names mulberry, the headline pollen of the desert spring, with olive and ash — the pollens behind readings of this shape in this state — and the split shows how much of today’s total each category is actually carrying.
Across the five-day window the Total Pollen Index runs from 5 to 5, never changing band. Today’s 5 sits level with the window’s average of 5 — a steady window, in which one day reads much like the next.

Carter Springs pollen through the year
The Carter Springs pollen year runs in chapters, set by the Mountain West pattern and the Nevada calendar. Trees come first: juniper can arrive in late winter, and the main tree wave builds in spring — as late as April at Denver’s altitude. Grasses take the middle of the year: grasses follow in a compressed early-summer run. Weeds close it out: ragweed and sagebrush-family weeds close the year from late summer.
The Nevada allergy season guide names mulberry, the headline pollen of the desert spring, with olive and ash. Las Vegas imported its pollen: heavy producers — fruitless mulberry, olive and ash — were planted as street and yard trees across the valley, and tree pollen can build there as early as February. Clark County reporting has described local rules restricting new plantings of fruitless mulberry, adopted in response to the tree’s heavy pollen output; the mature trees already planted remain in place.
November falls between the main chapters of the Nevada pollen year — the tail of one and the approach of the next — so the calendar alone explains little today, and the modelled split above carries the story. Between them, the three chapters cover 9 months of the Nevada year, February to October — leaving a quiet gap of roughly 3 months in the depth of the off-season. The full calendar is set out in the Nevada allergy season guide.
How to read this index
Pollen Atlas reports the Carter Springs pollen count on a Total Pollen Index from 0 to 100, built from separate tree, grass and weed readings. The total is a summary, not an average of the three: a single strong category can lift it, and three quiet categories can hold it down whatever the month. Index values are a modelled pollen risk index computed by Pollen Atlas from open weather, vegetation and phenology data, calibrated against CDC/NAB season data, with plant detail by the Google Pollen API. The index is a modelled 0–100 scale, not a measured count, and figures update through the day, so a morning and an evening visit to this page can legitimately show different numbers.
